What Others Say
Flavorful
Many recipes, I enjoy all of the day parts as many good books forget we eat breakfast and lunch at times. Many recipes complex but others simple and full of flavor. No doubt much passion and care from the author in regard to his craft. The forward if people read such things written by another chef is one of the best I have seen and really captures the author and what he is about, well done. Great photos and the chef displays a knack for plating and displaying food he should do a book just on this subject. It is a must book for the culinary libary.
Now that's cooking
No food stylist here, real food cooked and shown by a chef who by the photos and the opening of each chapter loves what he does and cooks from the heart. I have many cook books being a fan of food and chefs and those TV chefs pump them out, doubt if they even write them on thier own.
By reading Club Cuisine: Cooking with a Master Chef, cooking from it I can tell that it is a labor of love from a chef who truly cares, I did not know such top cuisine was served at private clubs as well.
I am use to this with books fom Europe so it is great to see a Amercian chef have so much heart and the ability to ceate good tasting food with flavors that make sense.

So much passion!
This chef rocks. I have attended two of his lectures and demos with class mates on cooking and food. He has so much passion and love for what he does. He said to us in his class I cook with water I do walk on water we are here together to share and learn from each other with a simple thing called food. The man is full of talent, love for his craft and Club Cuisine: Cooking with a Master Chef shows all of his. We love you chef!
Good Cooking
This is a fist class cook book. With so many out there, Club Cuisine: Cooking with a Master Chef has a nice designe, great pictures that show food you want to eat! It even has breakfast and lunch items, not all meals revolve around dinner.
The chef knows his stuff and knows how to harmonize flavors while show creative food that works.
Good cooking Chef
Awesome
I am a fan of the man no doubt.
This chef has done much for the profession, gives back and now shares his cuisine at the club he works at. He has made club cuisine come alive and be noticed. I am a chef in a club and Chef Leonard has helped club chefs all over the country.
